I am back from Firenze, Italia - living in Columbia, Missouri. The experience affected me greatly... As you'll find out by having one conversation with me. Now I am deep into school, working on my interior design degree, my painted shoes, my salsa dancing, and this new album! "Anna & the X's" is finally ready, and it's only been.. a little over 4 years since I put out my last album.. Hopefully the next one will come a little faster! Enjoy the new band, lyrics, and sounds :)
I’m still painting, on everything I can get my hands on. Send me some shoes, and I’d love to work with you to create a custom and meaningful piece of art.
Peace!
